Chapter 5 005: Taking advantage of the situation to stand out
Sitting under Chang Xi was a babu bed made of high-quality mahogany. On the outer layer was a dressing table and wash stand of the same material. Everything on it was complete, and there was nothing missing on the bed, such as quilts. The people who came out to arrange it put a lot of thought into it.

She stretched out her hand to touch the good-quality red silk tent, with a thoughtful expression on her face, and gained a deeper understanding of Xie's thoughts.

The Xie family has expectations of her, so the treatment of all parties should not be low.

It wasn't until a belly groan came that she realized that she hadn't eaten all day. She was busy fighting this and that before, but she noticed her body's need for food.

Since no one came in, she got up and took the initiative.

Sure enough, there are maids guarding outside the house of the rich family.

The two maids are not very old, about thirteen or fourteen years old, wearing double buns, with green bijia on the upper body, and a pink skirt on the lower body, with an apricot belt around the waist, which is different from dressing her before. The maids are dressed the same, but it is obvious that they are two people.

It's a pity that she has a good impression of the maids who dress her up. After all, who doesn't love those who talk less and work hard?
"Go to the kitchen and order some food."

She is not picky. As a superior in her previous life, she never gave people the opportunity to speculate on her preferences, preventing others from picking up on what she likes.

The two maids looked at each other, but neither of them responded, they still stood there motionless, and didn't even bother to give her a look.

Seeing their attitudes, Chang Xi couldn't help laughing. Sure enough, the King of Hades is easy to see, and the little ghost is hard to deal with. These two people must not be serving Master Xie, otherwise they would not be so blind.

After thinking about what the master wants to achieve as a servant, he will definitely do his best to share the master's worries, so that the master can have the opportunity to see his ability, and his position can be promoted.

For example, the nanny who greeted the bride before was a smart person, embarrassing her is meaningless, and it will highlight her inability to do things. In the future, the master will not entrust him with important things, so it is not worth the loss.

Seeing Chang Xi's smile, the two maids felt a little uneasy, but they still refused to talk to each other.

"Since you didn't hear what I said, it's easy to handle. When the nanny next to your wife comes over later, I'll ask her again, is the Xie family planning to starve me to death?"

As soon as these words came out, the faces of the two maids changed immediately.

They are not the first-class maidservants serving by Madam's side, how can they talk to Madam Zhong by Madam's side?But this so-called wedding room was arranged by Nanny Zhong with someone, and it was Nanny Zhong who went to welcome the bride. If Nanny Zhong really came later, would she blame them for not doing their job well?
Chang Xi is not in a hurry now, she leans on the door and watches the two people's eyebrows and lawsuits, she did not expect that she would be reduced to taking advantage of the situation, it makes people uncomfortable to think about it.

You have fallen, Chang Xi.

She couldn't help complaining to herself in her heart.

One of the round-faced maids was overwhelmed at first, she looked at Chang Xi with a somewhat uneasy expression, "Madam Chang, wait a moment..."

"Xiaotao, what are you doing?" Another sharp-faced maid hurriedly pulled the little friend, and whispered, "You forgot that we agreed..."

Xiaotao pulled out the arm that was being held by her companion, and also replied in a low voice, "If Nanny Zhong knows that we have neglected her, then there will be no good fruit for us, even Sister Banana Xing will not be able to keep us."

Being able to guard the door is already a second-class maid in the mansion, which is much better than being a third-class rough envoy before them. She doesn't want to lose this job.

"Hey, Xiaotao..."

The sharp-faced maid saw that her companion had really gone to the kitchen to serve food, and hurriedly chased after her.

Chang Xi watched the two maids leave in a hurry, one after the other, apparently the maid named Xiao Tao didn't listen to the persuasion of the sharp-faced maid, and walked faster towards the kitchen.

There was no good show to be seen, she turned around and sat down in front of the Eight Immortals table resentfully, picked up the teapot on the table and shook it, but there was no tea, it seems that the maid named Jiao Xing had worked hard behind her back.

The time to eat was too boring, she analyzed the information revealed in the dispute between the two just now in her mind.

The maid, Jiao Xing, seems to have a bit of prestige among the servants, but she is not as good as a close friend of the wife like Nanny Zhong, so this person is worth studying.

It can be seen from the fact that the gatekeeper maids were arranged, the Xie family arranged for her close maids, but none of them showed up now, obviously the maid named Jiao Xing was behind the scenes.

Why do people make things difficult for her?It was nothing more than she was in the way of others.

The ancient girl wants to climb up the bed and become an aunt?
No, according to what she knew about the Xie family in her memory, the Xie family did not have a concubine room, which also explained why she would rather spend money on pawning his wife than directly buy her from the Xu family to be a concubine, not to mention that the Xu family was reluctant Selling a wife does not exist, as long as the money is in place, everything is easy to talk about.

What a fucking time.

Thinking that she has no right to personal freedom, or even property rights, Chang Xi can't help but swear no matter how well-bred she is.

In her eyes, nothing else is necessary, and freedom is as indispensable as money.

Since Jiao Xing has no chance to climb the bed and become an aunt, what is she asking for?
Her hand unconsciously tapped the tabletop of the Eight Immortals table, or someone behind Banana Xing did not wish her well.

Thinking of this, she laughed again, it seems that her guess should be almost the same.

Now, she was a little curious about Xie Jiuye, who was going to win him?
Is a widower who has lost three wives really so sought after?

Ha ha, this is really getting more and more interesting.

She began to look forward to meeting that Master Xie Jiu. Does he have a good Pi Ke?Still have an interesting soul?
Of course, she lacks interest in digging out the person behind Banana Xing, after all, this method is not enough.

If this person could marry into the Xie family in a fair manner, then there would be nothing wrong with her, but now that she is in the Xie family after all, it means that she cannot marry in, and no matter how hard she tries, it will be in vain.

Or think about it in reverse, or cooperate with this person, and she will have a chance to escape unscathed?

No, now is not a good time.

She had to wait for the wind to blow so that she could soar up instead of being blown into the pond by the wind.

At this moment, there was another dispute not far from the door, and a faint voice came into her ears.

"Xiao Tao, are you going to betray me?"

When Chang Xi went out to watch, she happened to see a woman in a crimson ivory dress with her back facing her, teaching Xiao Tao a lesson, while Xiao Tao seemed to be arguing with reason, while protecting the tray with food in her hand , while the pointed-faced maid and two other slightly better-dressed maids blamed Xiaotao one-sidedly.

"I asked her to bring it, Jiaoxing, do you have any objections?"

Hearing her voice, everyone was startled and turned around hastily. Seeing Chang Xi who had walked over at some time, everyone was surprised and had different expressions.

Some people fear, some scrutinize, some despise, some ignore, but it makes her amused.

But where there are people is the rivers and lakes, this is not wrong.

At this time, Jiao Xing's eyes were filled with fear. How did the wife of Xiaohu, who was said to be from the countryside, know her name?

"Miss Chang, the food is here." Xiaotao walked towards her across the crowd.

Now that she has offended Jiao Xing and the others, she can only get closer to Chang Xi.

"You've done a good job, Xiaotao." Chang Xi reached out and patted her on the shoulder as a sign of encouragement.

Xiao Taoyuan blushed, "That's what I should do..." After realizing that Chang Xi could say her name accurately, Yuan's face blushed.

Chang Xi didn't explain, but glanced at everyone, "When Nanny Zhong comes, I'll tell her to let you wait on me."

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of the two maids who were dressed slightly better changed instantly.

As early as when the Fourth Madam was going to be the wife of Lord Jiu, she began to pick people from the mansion to serve them. They were lucky enough to be selected. From the second-class maids to the first-class maids, the monthly bills rose to one tael of silver. I was so happy that I couldn't find North.

Later, Jiao Xing came to persuade them, saying that she wanted to show the country mud legs a little bit of color, so that she would not dare to order them to do things to put on airs of their masters.

After discussing with each other, the two decided to do what Jiao Xing said, then maybe they could hold the pawn wife in the future, and the two of them would be able to use chicken feathers as arrows, and their lives would be unrestrained.

However, the situation now made them dumbfounded.

Seeing Xiaotao returning to the wedding room with the lady Chang, the two of them didn't have time to think about it, and hurriedly chased after her, ignoring the ashen-faced Banana Xing.

Chang Xi had already sat down to eat the mixed porridge brought back by Xiao Tao. Even though she was very hungry, she ate quickly and gracefully. After all, some upbringing could not be changed in her bones.

This is also the difference between her and Chang San'e. Fortunately, the Xu family's mother and son are not in front of them, otherwise they will definitely become suspicious.

Miss Chang, this side dish is less oily and refreshing, try it...

Miss Chang, this pastry is not greasy at all, it just helps digestion...

The two well-dressed maidservants tried their best to behave, but Chang Xi glanced at them indifferently, and didn't respond too much, but gave Xiao Tao enough face.

The two had no choice but to wink at Xiaotao desperately, asking her to help say something nice, and it was best not to let Chang Xi bring the matter to Nanny Zhong, otherwise they would definitely be beaten back to their original shapes, even the second-class maids would not be able to keep them.

Chang Xi's posture is full, but she is also deliberately inspecting Xiaotao.

She will definitely live in Chang's family for a period of time, so it is necessary to cultivate one or two people of her own. If she is loyal and useful in the future, it is not impossible for her to redeem them and take them away.

The Xie family didn't want to treat her badly, but they didn't want to support her either. The people who could be sent to her side were not the real face-worthy people in the house.

Seeing those two looking at her expectantly, Xiaotao couldn't bear it, and finally pleaded for them, "Miss Chang, please give the two sisters another chance to change their ways."

The two of them got Xiaotao's pleading, and they immediately hurriedly begged Chang Xi to show their loyalty for another chance.

Chang Xi didn't look at those two more, but looked at Xiao Tao and confirmed again, "You really think so?"

Xiaotao nodded obediently, she really couldn't bear to see these two being beaten back to their original forms.

"Okay, I see." Chang Xi still had a smile on his face, "Then it will be as you wish."

Xiaotao thanked Chang Xi, but the tone in her heart was still tense. This Mrs. Chang always had a smile on her face. Although she didn't show her face, it made people subconsciously tense for no reason. Say the wrong thing and do the wrong thing in front of her.

Only then did Chang Xi look at the two of them, "Get up, since Xiao Tao begged for you, then this matter will be over."

The implication is that she will not tell Nanny Zhong about their poor service.

But, does Grandma Zhong really not know?
